Nprobe is paywalled past 25000 flows. Not an option for me and I do not feel 
like ng provides the easy to digest top talkers like ntop did.

So without ntopng being able to consume netflow natively and some more UI 
devil, for my purposes I feel like the last, stable and fairly recent ntop 
should do.

I'm just looking for it to do the thing it's mainly advertised to do and is 
used out in IT land for most.

It worked fine with a mirror port but I want the netflow detail. I feel like I 
may be misconfiguring something? It's as if after the first minute or so and 
ntop not "unsticking" , the data on the page is wrong from then on. At the same 
time, I'm inclined to say all other stats are fine on other pages.

Hi,

With NtopNG relying on paywall’ed nprobe, I need to use the last stable version 
of ntop to get an overview of whats going on in my network. I mainly need it to 
identify bandwidth hogs and for the most part hang out in the “Top Talkers” 
area.

I used to have ntop setup on SPAN ports. Recently, I installed a Cisco 891 
router and am exporting netflow from all my VLANs (I have about 5) with “ip 
flow ingress” and “ip flow egress” on each vlan.

Ntop reads this data, but I realized the top talkers list is completely wrong 
and I can’t explain its behavior. I’ve tried several renditions of ntop and 
even tried compiling it on the machine its running on (CentOS 32bit). It seems 
as though once a host reaches the top, it stays on the top talkers list and 
reports its top peak usage, as the current minute usage (if looking at top 
talkers by hour).

So for instance, my public IP host will shoot to the top of the list doing 
~2Mbit /sec. Despite KNOWING that the throughput is different (viewing stats on 
the Cisco or generating even more traffic), as the toptalkers list populates 
with future data/minutes – the host will stay there and report ~2Mbit /sec.

I tried netflow v5, v9. Setting low timeouts, etc.

I REALLY need this to work as I don’t know of any other good open source 
solution for such a good birds eye view of the status of my live network. I 
managed a very limited pipe and need to be able to answer who is hogging my 
bandwidth.

Appreciate any help.
